[Bug 1288849] [NEW] network manager constantly asks wireless password before login

[Masoud Pourmoosa]

Public bug reported:

On my laptop, I am connected to "eduroam" wireless network (the global
wireless network that you can find in most educational institutions).
The network manager knows my credentials so that I am connected
immediately AFTER I login to Ubuntu  (I have automated login disabled) .

However, BEFORE I login to my user account, I see a dialogue asking for
my wireless password. I have to cancel it before I can login. After
logging in, I don't see the dialogue any more: I connect automatically
to eduroam.

This behavior of network manager is meaningless and irritating. There
should be a way to fix it.
